Lesson 1 Connecting Sounds: Consonant + Vowel

Look at the text and connect the consonant + vowel sounds.
I wake up at 6 o’clock. I get up at 6.50. I make a cup of
tea and iron my clothes. I have a shower and get
dressed. I usually wear jeans, a blouse, a jumper or
cardigan and boots in the winter, or a skirt and blouse in
the summer. I brush my hair, put on my make-up. I pack
my bag with all my teaching materials. I then put on my
coat and leave the house. I walk to the bus stop. I catch
the bus at 8.15, and then I pay my fare and sit down. It
takes about 45 minutes to get to my destination three
miles away. I get off the bus and walk to the school
where I teach English. I have to sign in and get the key.
Class starts at 9.25 and ends at 11.25.
I have lunch at 12. I eat a baguette or sandwich at the
local café. I sometimes do some shopping before I walk
back to school. I do some photocopying and go back to
my classroom. I teach in the afternoon from 1 to 3pm. I
then catch the bus back home and spend a couple of
hours relaxing before I cook dinner.
My son goes to work shortly after I come home.
Sometimes he cooks dinner before I get home, and
sometimes I cook. I like to eat rice or pasta with a
sauce. I chop the onions, fry them and then mix them
with garlic, tomatoes, carrots, spinach and chilies. I boil
the rice and then add the sauce. After dinner I wash up,
sweep the floor, and tidy up a bit.
Then I make phone calls, mark my students’ work, do
the laundry. Then I go on Facebook, or watch TV until
about 10.30 when my son comes home. We catch up
on our day, and at about 11 o’clock I go to bed.
